I've been reading an excellent magazine - Country Walking - for many years.  It's usually filled with good walking tips, routes and reviews of walking equipment.  This month, there is an article stating that walking benefits you in various ways - eg,  lowering blood pressure;  reducing the likelihood of having a serious fall;  and also reducing the chance of developing diseases like cancer.   For more details, the magazine is available in most newsagents or here -

Bushy Park walkers

Whatever your motivation, (gaining fitness, losing weight, enjoying the countryside or whatever), the key aspect of exercise is to do it over a long period and this only tends to happen if you ENJOY it.

I've found that most people who enjoy Nordic Walking usually have other things in common.  So striking up conversation with others on a walk tends to lead to interesting conversations.  In fact, some walkers hardly realise they are exercising at all!  Engrossed in the surroundings, they are back at the finish without noticing.

On my walks, people have found out about new holiday destinations; reliable local tradesmen; where to get a decent sports massage, or where to get soft furnishings... as well as a whole lot more!

If you want to give Nordic Walking a try, please do get in touch.  I have no taster sessions currently planned, but I will hold them if there is demand.
